RE: Why the World Needs DTube

in #dtube7 years ago

Yes I would agree with you that YouTube sorry there's time is come and gone. I am someone who loves the blockchain for one thing- for it's decentralisation. But I must tell you that though I understand that dtube is still at it's birth stage which I believe is going to be surpassing themtube but at tge same time we need to step up our games.

Today I must say that I got disappointed when for several hours tried uploading my videos and all to no avail and I reluctantly used themtube to help myself. I was not happy at all I must tell you.

I think if we must make decentralisation work then there has to be a step up so that we on the blockchain who have accepted that decentralisation will enjoy it at the same bringing more people to adopt too.

I love your video and thank you for throwing more light on YouTube sorry themtube and how dtube can replace it for decentralisation.

I agree with that, so I think especially if you are a content creator here on D-tube, that people need to seriously consider renting a VPS or set up a home Linux server and host an IPFS server to help store and stream videos. Although it is possible to do this on your pc, it isn't ideal as pc's don't tend to stay on 24/7. IF videos are unavailable because your server is offline, it doesn't help anyone and it just adds to the image that D-tube isn't mature enough or a serious contender. I am looking into adding IPFS to my Linux server.
